This well written poem reads a lot like lyrics from a country & western tune. That being said, I have a sneaking suspicion that I know who it was that wrote this scathing little verse.
Sometimes you just gotta forgive to forget, then in the immortal words of Willie Nelson, get back On the road again and head on down the highway. No user beating yourself up or crying over spilt milk. What's done is done.

Well done, "BMW".
Good luck in the contest. ~Dean ;}

    Thank you. Always appreciate your support and know you will tell me exactly how you feel about something I wrote. Got two votes in the contest, but have received 20 positive reviews so far. Go figure. Oh well, Positive response is much more important to me than contest votes, especially when it pertains to one of my Country music song lyrics.

    That's true, Brett. It is more important.
    You're very welcome, buddy!

This meets the contest requirements splendidly. This comes across as a country song to me as the meter is so lyrical throughout - well done. I wish you all the best in the voting and thank you very much for sharing it.

Wasn't that the title of a song? Breaking up is hard to do? You are probably male because of course you would never admit to shedding tears over a woman. Or a hard-hearted woman who does not want to appear weak or needy. I adore your poem. The artwork is great. Best wishes in the contest.

    Thanks for very much for your presumptive comments.

    I am sorry I was presumptive in my comments. But I did give you 5 stars because I didn't have any sixes left. I did tell you that I adored your poem. I also thought the artwork was great and I wisjed you well in the contest. But again please forgive me for my presumptive comments. They were not right and not necessary. I am sorry. Please forgive me. If I was younger I would get down on my knees but can't really do that unless it is urgent LOL.

Nicely written although void of anything new/creative/fresh approach to an old theme. Good luck in the contest. livelylinda

Definitely sounds like lost love to me. Yes, the end of a relationship can be crushing, but it can also be liberating, too. Besst wishes in the contest, my friend~Debbie

Hello anonymous,

I like~I Can't Do This Anymore~ it is a sad love story, it is true that breaking up it's hard to do, I had first hand experience. Good job!

My heart breaks for you in the poetic piece. I think we've all been where you are at once in our lifetime. Your poem told a beautiful and yet heartbreaking story of lost love.

Perhaps fix this -- Loving you (to me) came so easy

This was my favorite verse... "I watch you as you're leaving
And, my back's against the wall
Up here on this mountain
My heart's about to take a fall."

I agree that breaking up is so hard to do.

Best wishes in the contest and good luck to you.

Much of this has the tone of a country western, or what we used to call "honkytonk" song, which seem to abound in love-lost themes, and the "ain'ts". Good luck to you in the contest, Jeanie Mercer
